The Most Beautiful Actresses Hail From Italy
To view article, go to: http://blog.eurocinema.tv/2009/11/04/the-most-beautiful-actresses-hail-from-italy.aspx
Last time around we said that all the beautiful actresses hail from France, well we misspoke. WHAT were we thinking? IT’S ITALY, and I thank you (and you know who you are) in advance for accepting my apology.
Of course there are the classic Italian beauties, Sophia Loren, Gina Lollobrigida, Claudia Cardinale…but believe me when I tell you there are more, many more.
Monica Bellucci, makes all the “beautiful women’s” lists worldwide and she can act, being seen by Eurocinema audiences in KAPUTT MUNDI, she put a new meaning into lover’s revenge. She has been in French films like IRREVERSIBLE and American audiences enjoyed her in MATRIX, TEARS OF THE SUN and more.
Maria Grazia Cucinotta she burst on to everyone’s radar in IL POSTINO and has stayed there ever since with appearances in Bond movies THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH and won an American Best Actress award for A BROOKLYN STATE OF MIND.
Asia Argento daughter of noted Italian horror film director Dario Argento, in fact she has been seen on Eurocinema in one of his films SINDROME STENDHAL opposite Thomas Kretschmer. She has been in numerous American and British movies as well, from XXX to MARIE ANTOINETTE to PARIS JE T’AIME.
Francesca Neri, besides being beautiful she is an accomplished actress having won 3 Best Actress awards for LIVE FLESH, GIOVANNA’S FATHER and PENSAVO FOSSE INVECA ERA UN CALESSE. She has also appeared in a few American films HANNIBAL, COLLATERAL DAMAGE.
Manuela Arcuri in 2008 she was #9 on the E!’s list of the 100 sexiest women in the world just behind Penelope Cruz. She made her mark in acting for her role in the Spanish film MAD LOVE and she is best known in Italy for her starring role in the TV series CARBINIERI.
Maria Mazza though she has not done many movies any Italian, especially Italian men, will know her name, or picture immediately from her numerous TV appearances. Her 2 films, TI LASCIO PERCHE TI AMO TROPPO and UN AMORE PERFETTO, have been well received in Italy and look for her to break in the US.
Ana Catarina Morariu, you know everyone noticed when she walked in on Bruce Willis’ arm in OCEAN’S TWELVE, and she has been attracting attention ever since. We at Eurocinema sure noticed when she co-starred in MY BEST ENEMY on Eurocinema
Vanessa Incontrada model, actress, TV talent she has been turning heads for a while. Her first movie was in the critically acclaimed INCANTATO and then on to A DINNER FOR THEM TO MEET. She will be seen on Eurocinema soon.
Diane Fleri, though born in France her career as an actress is totally in Italy. She has been an actress in TV dramas and then moved to cinema with MY BROTHER IS AN ONLY CHILD seen on Eurocinema, since then she has done a number of projects including THY NEIGHBOR and I AM LOVE.
Catarina Mureno, this Italian beauty splits her time between Italy, France, UK and US making films. We first noticed her in CASINO ROYALE, though she was on screen only a short time ask any guy if he remembers Solange from that movie.
Elisabetta Canalis, the reason George Clooney spends soooo much time in Italy. She was a presenter on the sports show CONTRACAMPO and them moved on to films being seen in the Italian comedy NATALE A NY, and as a nun in VIRGIN TERRITORY. Sometimes you just do things for the paycheck she was in DEUCE BIGALOW, EUROPEAN GIGOLO. And still George likes her.

Over 1.200 bloggers took part in the first edition in 2006 and several online medias considered the event as the first Blog Marketing experience in Italy, Due to the overwhelming interest TUI.it repeats the experiment also this year.
Big and important news for 2007 edition:

Fil Rouge of the event is the travel story: travel everywhere around the world, a travel of few days or of a life, a travel far in exotic places or near in simple places, but anyway travel as meeting point of stories different for styles and content.
Each blogger builds up its own travel story where can be voted for. HTML is therefore needed. At the end, the blogger with the most votes wins a holiday package for two to the Cape Verde Islands. Furthermore other awards for the weekly best blogger and the best voter will be given.
The base concept of this competition is the idea of vitality: the chance of a blogger to win, the more friends invites to vote for him. At the same time also the voters have the chance to win a lot of wonderful awards.
TUI.it mission is to create a bloggers community, with the common love for travels through the most modern communication instruments and the most up-to-date trends of the world wide web, offering a competition in Web 2.0 style, which consists in a new user vision, now a real actor of the web with the content creation and in the chooise of the content, too.

The Coca-Cola jingle is one of television’s classics: “I’d like to teach the world to sing, in perfect harmony…” Through the years its message of togetherness hasn’t lost an iota of relevance. The songwriters were alluding to elements of life that’s universally loved and worth bonding over. Sure, it was also about selling Coke, but the sentiment struck a chord of togetherness that not even a Pepsi exec could deny. Right now soccer fans the world over are in tune with daily drama offered by the World Cup in Germany. Accordingly, Coca-Cola is in Germany on the crest of an advertising trend, perhaps, and sponsoring a large team of bloggers in order to share the World Cup experience online. And if they get engage in some quality branding, well, that’s okay, too.
ICMediaDirect.com is well represented with employees hailing from World Cup 2006 countries. In fact, we resemble a microcosm of global rooting interest. Besides disappointed Team USA backers we’ve had partisans pulling for their native France, South Korea, Italy, Brazil, and Ukraine. During the last World Cup catching part of a match meant a secretive trip to a nearby restaurant or pub; now seeing beloved soccer teams doesn’t require going missing in the middle of the working day. ESPN360, the free downloadable application that broadcasts the action on the pitch, has changed this don’t-see/don’t tell dynamic. Now we can watch from our terminals, still at the expense of office productivity be damned, but at least we know where everyone is. Face-time is saved.
The Internet is also soaking up and fostering online World Cup communities that would not exist without some of the latest in blogging applications. Take for instance, this new online celebrity in Beijing, China, Dong Lu. You may not have heard of him, but soccer fans in China certainly have. A sportswriter, he started a blog from his living room this past November – now he’s averaging over 100,000 hits a day and has just reached his ten-millionth visitor. All this and China didn’t make the World Cup!
Dong Lu has extensive coverage, pictures of the action, signature podcasts where he dresses up in a fake afro and mustache (think he’s having fun?) and a vibrant messageboard. Respondents to a recent Indian online survey rank the Chinese ahead of Singaporeans, Malaysians, Australians, and Thais in terms of likelihood of visiting websites for World Cup coverage. The corralling ability of this interest creates excellent advertising opportunities, Dong Lu would concur. It’s great that there are soccer nuts in China and even better to know they’ve a place online to take themselves. Dong Lu isn’t merely putting on a show, he’s an enthusiast just like his visitors. That’s the Internet at its best.
Early statistics suggest that Coca-Cola’s decision to sponsor a platform of World Cup may prove a wise choice. Building on their “Torino Conversations” blogging model from the Winter Olympics in February, the goal of www.weallspeakfootball.com is to provide an expanded online World Cup experience with over 30 bloggers and counting. Collectively it helps convey, as one Internet wag referred to it, the “everyone wants to party with everybody” mentality that’s overflowing in Germany right now. Coca-Cola’s bloggers are providing interaction and quality vlogging, that’s fun and extensive video clips of goings-on that doesn’t make televised broadcast.
Early statistical returns suggest that the World Cup 2006 is being heavily followed and watched online. According to Kevin Alavy, of Initiative Futures, the highly desired 16-24 year-old demographic is three times more likely to take in World Cup content online than on mobile and, more importantly, the satisfaction ratings is also much greater with online content, at almost 70%. These kinds of numbers are getting attention, no doubt.
Advertisers, heed Coke’s example. The World Cup is a special event that generates tremendous global interest and the Internet covers it better, more comprehensively and to higher levels of satisfaction than any medium. Since this World Cup is shaping up like a winner for online advertising it should also be viewed as a precursor to World Cup 2010. Internet applications that already make access to information, vlogging, and fan interaction an enjoyable supplement to the World Cup coverage will continue to improve in the next four years with continued broadband and quality WiFi expansion. This will make World Cup 2010 an advertising bonanza.
All of this change and innovation in coverage and yet it’s still the simple and “beautiful game” of soccer along with national pride that draws us in. “I’d like to buy the world a home and furnish it with love…”

The food known as pizza today is actually a very Italian food. The very first pizza was created during the 19th Century and is a very recent addition to Italian cuisine. This news may sound surprising considering how simple a culinary invention pizza is: flat bread, tomato sauce, and of course cheese. Although astounding, there lies a fascinating explanation as to why there was such a delay in this food’s invention and it deals with a ubiquitous fruit!
Although pizza is a strictly Italian food, Pizza’s ancestors have their origins deep in Greece. The original ancestors of the Romans migrated from Greece. With the Greeks came the foods that eventually became the common fare of Italians. The breads, herbs, and other foods Italians loved were therefore ripe for becoming pizza. The recipes that predate pizza are ancient; these foods fed men and women for thousands of years. Each ancient comestible recipe is in itself a piece of history.
Is Pizza Italian or American? That is a question many individuals may not know. Perhaps the lack of discernment is a direct result of the relatively young age of this omnipresent, popular dish loved by Americans. Despite America’s love of Pizza, Italians have long held the impressive boast of being the source of one of the world’s favorite foods.
Before the advent of pizza, breads were cooked with herbs and served with meals or as the meal itself. A common bread we use today like this is focaccia bread. Focaccia bread is bread that has its toppings literally cooked in it. Common focaccia bread toppings include cheese, herbs, spices, and vegetables such as fresh olives or sun-dried tomatoes. The ingredients used to make focaccia are quire reminiscent of pizza. The taste of focaccia is certainly amazing, and in Italy, the bread is a popular snack food.
The first to have baked focaccia bread were the early Greeks who migrated to Italy. If these peoples did not, then the Romans most certainly can be credited with the invention. The Romans were quite fond of breads that had toppings baked onto or in them. The Romans of course loved food. The Romans love of food is even evident in what was considered to be a cultural norm: vomiting after meals. The Romans practice of vomiting was not due to a bulimic mindset; rather, vomiting would empty the contents of the stomach and allow the person to eat again immediately.
Each ingredient is thoroughly mixed with the dough and baked to produce a robust, flavorful, and thoroughly enjoyable experience for the pallet. Olive oil is commonly used to garnish the bread.
Aside from Focaccia bread, there are many other types of seasoned breads and flat breads that bear much resemblance early forms of pizza. You will find that the early Greeks, as aforementioned, who colonized Italy can be attributed to planting the proverbial seeds of Italian cuisine. Doing a little research can reveal a interesting history and inform you of the origins of food.
This article really doesn’t do justice to this topic like my website’s comprehensive article on the man who created pizza: Rafael Esposito. The story is both interesting and is a useful piece of trivia. Relating this tid-bit of knowledge at parties or while eating out can be fun for your companions. In addition to discussing the origins of pizza, I go into some detail about how to make pizza. From dough to sauce to cheese to toppings, nearly everything is covered at my site.
To get the full story, check out my website (maybe you”‘d call it a blog!) dealing with the first pizza maker: How to Make a Pizza. So, if you are wondering if pizza is Italian or American you now know. If you really want the full story, just take a look at my article all about the creator of the first pizza: How to Make a Pizza. Ciao!
Italy. The culture of no other country in the world embraces life with as much zest as the Italian culture. Italy is a country vibrant with emotion, celebration, and opportunities to dive into life at full speed. But it is also a country full of quiet museums, peaceful hillside vineyards, golden beaches, ancient ruins and hushed cathedrals. Italy, in other words, is a splendid place for a honeymoon.
Spending your honeymoon in Italy can find you enjoying the romance of a moonlit Venetian gondola ride, complete with serenade. Or it might find you hiking the expanses and drinking in the magnificent Dolomite views of the Alpe de Suisi, at 6500 feet in altitude Europe’s largest alpine meadow.
If your ideal honeymoon in Italy would be a combination of relaxing days at the beach, and a trip back in time, you won’t do better than to stay among the harbor villages and historic ruins of the Amalfi Coast. If your honeymoon budget does not allow an overnight stay in the area, you should at least experience a bus ride coast along the Amalfi Coast, where you will pass hotels and private villas clinging as if by magic to vertical hillsides above cliffs dropping some 500 feet to the tiny beaches below.
If you do not mind the idea of spending part of your honeymoon in Italy being spent among the crowds of one of the world’s great cities, head for Rome. From the glories of Vatican City, the Villa Borghese, and St. Peter’s, to the somewhat commercial charms of the Pasta Museum, you will find something in Rome to fill every minute of your day there.
Visit the oldest public art collections in the world at the Capitoline Museum. Climb the Spanish Steps for and on parallel view of the city, and on your descent stop in at the Keats-Shelley Memorial House, a tribute to two of the world’s greatest romantics and a fitting place to visit on your honeymoon in Italy!
And your days activities by relaxing Relax, as the Italians do, over a leisurely supper and one of Rome’s tucked-away eateries, which you can find in the older part of the city, the Trastevere. You will be treated to authentic, freshly-prepared Italian cuisine at remarkably affordable prices, and you will never look at take-out from an Italian restaurant back at home the same way again!
Your honeymoon in Italy, no matter where you decide to spend it, will be an exciting, romantic, and fun-filled experience and the perfect way to begin the marvelous years ahead!

Having an Italian online business is no easy walk in the park. It is certainly easier than dealing with a real live store because of the facilities the Internet offers, but itâs still a lot of work to be done. The appearance deceives. It is not enough to have an attractive website made and to launch it online. One has to be concerned with seo in italy as well as with webmarketing Italy. A website has to look good to everyone: clients, visitors, search engines and owner. It would be difficult to make âmagicâ happen without the help of professionals.
So, what happens when you want to be in top of the search engine listings, when you want traffic and when you target sells? Well, if youâve already handled the design, you should turn to seo in Italy. Optimize your siteâs text as so to become visible to search engines. Ask yourself questions regarding which keywords you want the web customers to find you, insert them systematically in your text on all pages and pay attention to titles, picture names and page names. Try to be objective and concise and connect everything to the keywords you are targeting. Your siteâs description, your tags and meta tags as well as other improvements must not be overlooked. This implies you have to work with the siteâs code, so you might not be able to do it by yourself. This is why seo in Italy is offered to you as a viable trustworthy solution.
Appealing to trained seo personnel will actually be of tremendous help. These persons know exactly what and how to change on your website. They use special programs to analyze keyword density, site structure and can easily detect the wrong doings of the original design of the site. It is a lot of work involved in this process, but the final result will be rewarding.
A good site is not only eye catching or well optimized. It is also well promoted. Seo in Italy is the second step after designing the web pages, but the third step is also considerably important. Making the site popular has to be done with a lot of consideration. The methods are numerous: blogs, forum posts, articles, ads, in a few words link building. Any type of webmarketing Italy will promote your website, but not all with the same effectiveness. However, some facts will give you an edge over the competition. You have to be patient and perseverant as these things take time and a lot of investment. Your efforts will eventually pay off.
All promotion means involve images or written text. The first option is the easiest to use because, as youâve probably noticed yourself, the web is filled with image ads, banners, logos and other means of suggesting visitors to take a look at this or that website. The second option is more challenging, but it is productive when it comes to search engines because they have other means of evaluating a website. Webmarketing Italy lets you know why this second choice is better.
Search engines have the following evaluation criteria:
1. site optimization and keyword density
2. number of links pointing to a site
3. number of links pointing from the site to other website
Staring with number 3, the value of the websites your site is pointing at can increase or decrease you own siteâs value. The number of links pointing to your site indicate how popular your site really easy. You see, people talk about the pages they enjoy watching and they communicate their likes and dislikes with the help of forum postings and blogs. Critics publish their opinion on things through articles. If your website creates a stir, this will show up in the number of links mentioned in this type of postings. Webmasters as well as seo professionals have analyzed these aspects and learned how to use them in their advantage. On site optimization is definitely necessary, but webmarketing Italy needs more. It needs optimized published text and links.
So, use seo in Italy to start your business properly, rely on the experience of those who have been doing this for a while and donât forget about webmarketing Italy because it is the key to your online success. Just like any other business, web promotion has its secrets, but those who know them can teach you to take your business to the top!

The Importance of Comments on Blogs
As a reader, you probably like reading the comments that are left on blogs and perhaps you even leave comments on posts that you enjoy. While you may just like comments, writing to you from the perspective of a blogger, I can tell you that we love them!
Every time I receive an email from our blog notifying me that a new comment has just been left, I get so excited.
Finding out what you think, learning from your perspective, and hearing how much you appreciate what we do is a real boost of energy and your comments inspire bloggers to continue providing their readers with news, fascinating content, and unique opportunities to be part of a thriving and united community.
Commenting on blogs is also about building community.
When you see several comments on a post, you know that people are being affected and are reaching out to others. When you see dozens of comments, well, that’s just incredible!
Commenting is a way for people to contribute to their blog community. For some people, commenting is a cathartic experience, for others, commenting is a way to share insight and to inspire others. Many people comment to say how much they valued a particular post or blog.
Each comment is a steppingstone to something more. It could be a conversation, a nugget of wisdom, or ideas for how to improve.
Many of your comments have resulted in improvements or additions to the blogs that you read, benefiting the entire readership and of course, making your experience consuming blogs more enjoyable and relevant to you.
I’ve heard that on average for every comment that is left on a blog post, at least 1,000 people have read that respective article. That statistic is encouraging and reminds bloggers that their audience is made up of all kinds of different people who contribute to the success of a blog.
Participating on a blog or being a part of a blog community includes activities such as reading, commenting, sharing, or even posting your own blog post inspired by what you have just read. This kind of activity is referred to as social media, a medium that has skyrocketed in popularity much in part to the Web 2.0 movement.
Blogs can be about any number of purposes including a personal journal, a corporate communications channel, online media outlets, product reviewing services, or reflections on the state of the world. To be more even more specific, there are all sorts of blogs, bloggers, and readers out there. There is truly a blog for every person.
To give you an example, my blog is a commentary, news outlet and editorial content provider for the voice industry, specifically people who record voiceovers and those who consume them. Our audience is comprised of professional and aspiring voice talent, voice actors, casting directors, voice over coaches, talent agents, studio producers, musicians, singers, station managers, creative directors, movie producers, and entrepreneurs.
We make a conscious effort to write about news, current affairs, human interest, and educational articles that inspire and motivate our audience and give our readership several different ways to get involved whether as a reader, commenter, contributor, or equipping them to be an evangelist for the industry.
Remember the official theme of the Olympic Games held in Torino, Italy this year?
It was “Passion Lives Here”.
That’s how we feel about the voice industry and we can best express that sentiment through our network of blogs.
The VOX Daily blog is just one way that we can connect with our audience but it is also a very important way that is accessible to everyone.
As the blog is online, it can be visited from anywhere, commented on, and consumed regardless of time of day, location, and even in some cases, language. Anyone can comment. I’ve seen comments from professional voice actors, teachers, fans of voiceovers and voice acting, investors, corporate entities, colleagues and family members of those featured on VOX Daily.
All of these comments have worth and inspire literally thousands of people around the world.
The more a blogger hears from you, the better and stronger their community becomes both online and off-line.
On behalf of all the bloggers out there, I want to thank you for sharing your thoughts with us over the years and with your fellow readers.
Stephanie Ciccarelli is the VP of Marketing with Voices.com, the voice over marketplace hosting more than 8,000 professional voice actors. Stephanie is the editor of the Voices.com Blog Network.
